Hello, welcome back after a brief hiatus. It is that time of year for the Good Beer Guide updates! (Non-GBG-related changes will be in next week's update.)

Our featured article is therefore
Category Good Beer Guide 2017. Here is
a link to the CAMRA website if you want to see what it looks like and/or buy a copy.
There are many new entries to our database:
*
The Beehive in Tottenham (a very nice pub I should have added years ago);
*
Brewhouse and Kitchen by Angel station;
*
The Broken Drum in Blackfen near Sidcup;
*
The Four Thieves, a former Antic pub in Battersea;
*
The Hare and Hounds in Greenford;
*
J.J. Moon's, a Spoons in Kingsbury;
*
The King's Arms, another lovely pub I should have added years ago (it's in Bethnal Green);
*
The King and Co. in Clapham;
*
The King's Stores in Spitalfields near Liverpool Street;
*
The Long Pond in Eltham (see main image above);
*
The Penny Farthing in Crayford;
*
The People's Park Tavern in South Hackney (a large place);
*
The Phoenix in the City of London (Throgmorton Street if you must know);
*
The Railway Arms in Oxhey (hey! I hear you say, is that even in London? well no, but it's by Zone 8 Bushey station);
*
The Rifleman in Epsom;
*
The Shaftesbury Tavern in Upper Holloway;
*
The Ship in Gidea Park;
*
The Upminster Taproom;

There's also a stub entry for
The Radius Arms in Whyteleafe, which wasn't visited in time to get a full write-up.
A noteable re-entry is the lovely
Chesham Arms, which was under threat a few years back, but has reopened and is lovely.
Finally, one that actually entered the GBG last year, but we missed it:
The Woodman in Woodmansterne.
